    For long days, ain't nothing better to replenish electrolytes.

    It actually tastes good when your sodium levels are that depleted, so it's not as gross as it sounds.
    You need to bring salt tablets for long days like that! When I did the Ironman I was taking 800 mg of sodium every two hours.
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

    Do you slow cook your brats in the Bass at that temp???

    I tip my hat to you. That's no joke. We vacationed on the Big Island this fall and happened to be there for THE IronMan. We stayed in Kapa'au and got to see the bike turnaround. Pretty cool.

    I grew up in MadTown, what was the course like?

    The course is great. The Madison Ironman gets the highest rating of all of the Ironmans from participants.

    The swim is in Lake Monona, the bike goes west into the driftless area (if Chicago had won the 2016 Olympics they would have used a majority of the course for the road biking events) and then the marathon is run in downtown Madison finishing a block off of the square.
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.
